Actually more like 4.75. I didn't L O V E it but I really, really, really enjoyed this story. And I adore Declan.

Declan Hale loves; a good book, a good bottle of Scotch and a good steak. Pretty much in that order. (I think because people are frail creatures and the ones he cares most about tend to die horrifically - a guy has to have a reliable support system, ya'know?). He's seen more and done more and lost more than pretty much everybody-else aaaaaand been exiled for his trouble (Thank you very much)

I hate to draw parallels between Reminiscent Exile and Dresden Files because the two series are nothing alike but Declan and Harry share a lot of the same traits. Both brim with power and are ostracized by their immediate peer group, are snarky as all get-out with huge hearts and the protective instincts of a silver-back gorilla. I think I'm in Love.

Joe Ducie's writing is a joy to read. Fluid, expressive without going overboard and occasionally so poignant it takes you by surprise. I enjoyed learning more about Declan and his world. The story didn't last long enough to suite me. I finished Broken Quill in less than a day and was desperately sad when it ended, because now that I have an inkling of where the series is going I have to wait wait wait to get there. I look forward to more of Declan Hale
